Scientists have created the world's first soap that can be controlled by magnets. That's right: magnetic suds. The breakthrough may revolutionize industrial cleaning products and the response to ...
Most of us think of soap as a way to make stuff less sticky. But a new process actually ups the stickiness of soap itself — by making it magnetic. Researchers at Bristol University in the United ...
When oil gets spilled in a waterway, clean-up crews will often introduce a solution known as a surfactant. This is a detergent that lessens the surface tension between the water and the overlaying oil ...
Scientists have developed a soap, composed of iron rich salts dissolved in water, that responds to a magnetic field when placed in solution. The soap’s magnetic properties were shown to result from ...
Researchers at the University of Bristol have made a soap that is magnetic. The iron-laden soap could be used in oil cleanups to help reduce the environmental impact caused by natural disasters.
BP released millions of gallons of dispersants to break up oil from the Deepwater Horizon disaster. But what if dispersants could be sucked up again after doing their job? Chemist Julian Eastoe talks ...
The world’s first magnetic soap has been created by scientists and it could revolutionise the way pollution is cleaned up. It was made by dissolving iron in chlorine and bromine-rich liquid soap, ...
The world’s first magnetic soap has been produced and it could dramatically improve pollution clean-ups. Scientists from the University of Bristol made the soap by dissolving iron in chloride and ...
